We went to a recommended pizzeria for dinner, da Mamo. It was excellent (we had a fresh ravioli dish, as well as two pizzas, a bottle of house red, and an amazing mascarpone cheese dessert that I will be making when I get the chance). It wasn’t busy and we made nice with the waiters, so we ended up with some free shots and a fun conversation about Indian food, which really surprised the waiter from Bangladesh (he was surprised that we knew the names of Indian dishes). When we were done with dinner, we walked right across the alley to a pub that apparently was owned by the same people (the free shots had been from one of the co-owners). Not sure what the guy said to the bartender, but he immediately jumped into a tirade of explicatives and waved around a fake gun. We then found out that he’d spent some time in New York. We got a few more free shots, then we headed home to recover.

Homemade ravioli with saffron
We get a lot of cheese pizzas, because they usually have four different cheeses (quattro formaggi) and being Italy they are usually AMAZING cheeses
We played a game of hangman to determine what country the waiter was from (since we hadn't figured it out in all our guesses)
